not when they make the most money off the truck and its been the best selling truck for how many years. they arent going to mess with that. there is a reason ford hasnt taken any money from the govt to stay afloat

I dunno, I just dont think it would have hurt current F150 sales if back in the 90's they introduced a Sport Trac Ranger instead of Explorer. Then have a solid upgrade path for the Ranger (as was done with the taco and frontier), and in 2010 the Ranger would not be bottom of the barrel in sales and appeal and they'd still have 1 of the best selling fullsizes and the Explorer market would still be intact as well
